Authors Note: I know it's short but I wanted to give you guys something. Next chapter will be up soon.
"A turtle?" Leo thought aloud as he found himself staring at the reptile slowly crawling out of the water and walking across the ground. Something about it seemed…different…
RING! RING!
Leo's gaze was disturbed as his Shell Cell went off, causing him to jump a bit as he picked it up.
"Yeah Don?"
"Find anything Leo?"
"No…Not yet."
"Yeah, me neither. This could take forever. What should we do?"
"I don't know…"
I honestly didn't. What should we do? Mikey could be anywhere. Injured or stuck somewhere and can't get out. Dang it, why did he have to pull a stunt like this!
"Leo?"
"I'm thinking!" I snapped a bit harshly. "Sorry Don."
"It's okay. I understand," he replied reassuringly.
"Well Raph went north. I went west. You went east. And we came from the south and still haven't even gotten anywhere near covering all the ground in 20 blocks alone."
"Yeah…Hold on. Let me look at my map again."
There was some shuffling on the other end as Don looked at his map. A few minutes went by until he said, "Alright. There's a location nearby you we haven't been to yet."
"Alright. Where is it?"
"From where you are, it should be pretty close to that big pool of water."
"Yeah. I'm right by it."
"Good. It stems out into a long stream, not that deep, but still noticeable. You see it?"
I looked over in that direction and noticed it.
"Yeah," I replied.
"Alright. Follow that and it should lead you to a large opening and another pool of water. The space is pretty big with a few more tunnels."
"Alright."
"I'm on my way and I'll call Raph. See if he's had any luck at all."
"Sounds good. Thanks Don. I'll see you soon."
CLICK.
"Well…guess I'll just have to…go…" I stopped, noticing the turtle I saw before had made its way past me, slowly crawling toward a small crack in the wall, next to the stream. As it got closer it stepped in and slowly disappeared into the dark. Normally I'd just ignore some random creature crawling around but something drew me to this turtle. Something I could sense in myself…Master Splinter always told me never to ignore those senses.
I sighed. "Great…Now what do I do?"
Looking at the small crack in the wall I noticed its size. I could actually fit through it. And it looks like it's leading in the same direction as the stream so it will lead me there eventually.
I let out a sigh.
Alright. If it leads nowhere I'll just backtrack.
Walking over to the wall I crouched down and looked into the disgusting crack to see a small tunnel.
Mikey, you better appreciate this, I thought, as I got onto my hands and knees and began to crawl after a probably pointless lead. The things I do for my brothers…
